Office software
Office 2010 (Preview)

Of course, Microsoft Office 2010 is not available for buying yet but this looks a solid prospect. The collaboration features have been much touted but they're dependent on SharePoint Server and Office Communciation Server. However, all enterprises that use Office (and that's nearly all enterprises) will buy this eventually - even if not in 2010 - so Microsoft knows that it's going to sell even if it were a poor product. Fortunately, it's not: this is a release with plenty that's new and some interesting new features, even if it's not revolutionary.

boe said: 2 Full OLE support for pictures in access - umm wasnt that functional with Office XP - why take that out Why should someone have to code to add pictures to a personal database Might was well use oracle or a real database if you are going to have to use code Adding Office XP photo editor is the work around but why not just add photo editor back into office if that is the solution
